ROBOTS

Innovation and science

edition number: 1 of 2008

by: Manuel Alberto Gómez Buelvas, Adela Castro Castillo

A robot is a machine—especially one programmable by a computer—capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically.Robots can be guided by an external control device or the control may be embedded within. Robots may be constructed to take on human form but most robots are machines designed to perform a task with no regard to how they look.Robots can be autonomus or semi-autonomous and range from humanoids such as Honda's Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility (ASIMO) and TOSY's TOSY Ping Pong Playing Robot (TOPIO) to industrial robots, medical operating robots, patent assist robots, dog therapy robots, collectively programmed swarm robots, UAV drones such as General Atomics MQ-1Predator, and even microscopic nano robots. By mimicking a lifelike appearance or automating movements, a robot may convey a sense of intelligence or thought of its own.

The branch of technology that deals with the design, construction, operation, and application of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing is robotics. These technologies deal with automated machines that can take the place of humans in dangerous environments or manufacturing processes, or resemble humans in appearance, behavior, and/or cognition. Many of today's robots are inspired by nature contributing to the field of bio-inspired robotics. These robots have also created a newer branch of robotics: soft robotics.From the time of ancient civilization there have been many accounts of user-configurable automated devices and even automata resembling animals and humans, designed primarily as entertainment. As mechanical techniques developed through the Industrial age, there appeared more practical applications such as automated machines, remote-control and wireless remote-control.The word 'robot' was first used to denote a fictional humanoid in a 1920 play R.U.R. by the Czech writer, Karel Čapek but it was Karel's brother Josef Čapek who was the word's true inventor.Electronics evolved into the driving force of development with the advent of the first electronic autonomous robots created by William Grey Walter in Bristol, England in 1948. 

The first digital and programmable robot was invented by George Devol in 1954 and was named the Unimate. It was sold to General Motors in 1961 where it was used to lift pieces of hot metal from die casting machines at the Inland Fisher Guide Plant in the West Trenton section of Ewing Township, New Jersey.Robots have replaced humans in performing repetitive and dangerous tasks which humans prefer not to do, or are unable to do because of size limitations, or which take place in extreme environments such as outer space or the bottom of the sea.There are concerns about the increasing use of robots and their role in society. Robots are blamed for rising unemployment as they replace workers in increasing numbers of functions. The use of robots in military combat raises ethical concerns. The possibilities of robot autonomy and potential repercussions have been addressed in fiction and may be a realistic concern in the future.

I THINK THAT THIS ARTICLE IS SO INTERESTING BECAUSE WE CAN KNOW ALL OF TYHE ROBOTS AND YOUR FUNCTIONS IN SPECIALY OF "ASIMO"

GLOSARY:

1. Capable: Capaz

2. Concerns: Preocupaciones

3. Repercussions: Repercusiones

EMAIL-KET EXAM

Hi,Angie:

the school trip to Guatavita's lake it's on friday, 18 of november/2016. The bus goes from school at 8:00am o'clockin the morning. Don't forget to bring lunch, anotebook with a pen and, also a camera but is your responsability.

best wishes

MY FUTURE e-mail

Hello,

I´m writing this in 2017. Here are my predictions for 2067.

There will be flying cars and there won´t be mosquitos too.

The school will be in the sky and many teachers will be robots as well. Also, i think they won´t be math classes.

Are my predictions true?

Mariana

No-Newtonian liquid

The non-Newtonian liquid is a good alternative to the traditional slime being non-toxic, edible and biodegradable. Because is composed of corn flour and water. The only thing you need to do if liquid dry is put water. Can be employed to do bulletproof vest and future use can be orthopedic templates using the properties of this liquid to bring a comfortable sensation in the foot, pillows that do your sleeping time the best of the day acquiring the form of your head , Sensory therapies bringing the sensation of liquid and solid twist. This liquid has recreational use and is more than 80% cheaper than other similar products like slime and Play-do , you can personalize the color, something that can’t be make in other products and you are bringing support to the students of José Max Leon School.

In Resume

• non-toxic
• biodegradable
• Can be employed to do bulletproof vest
• Can be used in orthopedic templates
• Sensory therapies bringing liquid and solid sensation twice
• More than 80% cheaper than other similar products

Materials

• Corn flour 300gr
• Water to your preference (no more than 1/3 of the total flour)
• A recipe

Steps

Put the flour in to the recipe, later put water to your preference and you stir since have the correct consistence (this is relative because in the middle have less water the effect can be more visible).

MY FAVORITE WEB SITE

there are lots of web sites but my favorite is snapchat created by Evan Spiegel, Bobby Murphy and Reggie Brown. it is about photos. You can take photos with filters and you can share them with your friends. It is to fun because the filters, i like it because i love selfies with filters.
